It seems that everything turned into scams, aggressive self marketing and just click bait irrelevant content. I liked finance videos, but every creator sounds like “the world will end soon” or “my secret method to make 1 million per week day trading stocks/forex/crypto.”
Content aimed at culture (movies/series) also behave the same way, throwing a bit of politics into the mix. Always the same incendiary click bait title spewing a bunch of nonsense that has nothing the story, setting characters or other topics relevant to the piece.
Is there anything that can be saved on that platform? It has gotten so bad that I’m start to think that Tiktok and Twitter both have better content than YouTube. At least in those platforms you can find a random dude writing an essay in a series of 20 tweets on why an increase of mantis is related to the global surge of ballpoint pen prices.
A lot of good ones have been mentioned already, but one that I’m missing is Ghost Town Living. It’s a guy that bought a old abandoned miners town and moved there at the start of Covid and is slowly bringing it back to life while exploring the town’s history and its many mines.
Edit:
Others that I haven’t seen mentioned yet:
- Let’s game it out - playing games…the wrong way
- T90Official - commentator on Age of Empires matches
- AI Explained - thorough explanations by someone who actually reads the white papers
- Xiaomany - Dude that speaks many languages and surprises people by talking their native language
- Device Orchestra - Making music using devices such as electric toothbrushes
- Dad, how do I? - The Youtube dad. Explaining how to do stuff as if he’s you’re dad
Others that have been mentioned before but worth mentioning again:
- Captain Disillusion
- Max Fosh
- Tom Scott
- Peter Santenello
- Louis Rossmann
I almost pissed myself laughing by watching the let’s game it out satisfactory series, loved it.
